Publisher's Synopsis
Mountain View is a tiny church with a white steeple found on Greensprings Highway between Ashland and Klamath Falls. Here, a group of unlikely congregants gather to worship and study the Bible beneath an enormous wooden cross separating two large windows with a view of the mountains and trees beyond. Before worship, we often serve breakfast to the kids from Wilderness Trails, a nearby camp for at-risk kids. Many of these kids have graciously offered their artwork for this book and we are proud to use it! Lee Ann Johnson is our Pastor Joe's wife. She divides her time between caring for kids and grandkids, a menagerie of farm animals (including Max the pig who thinks he's a dog), working at a dental office in Ashland, and singing on the worship team. Lee Ann began writing these snippets of inspiration a couple of years ago and includes them in our Sunday bulletins. We all look forward to them so much that we decided to share them with you. Marleen McDowell and Sandy Cathcart are both seasoned writers who also attend Mountain View and have joined with Lee Ann to create a lovely gift book designed to grow your faith, hope and love through candid stories, real-world applications, color pages, and inspirational Bible readings. We hope you are as blessed as we are with these writings as we welcome you to our Mountain View home. Here, liberals and conservatives, alike, get along and break bread together, opening the Word and sharing heartfelt needs and prayers. If you are ever in the area, we would love to have you join us! The coffeepot is on before and after every service.
